To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.
Not that i needed yet another radio, but....

Yeah I JUST missed the $99 sale by a few minutes. The conversion is the same as the Anytone at5555 (plus / plus/n). Just hold a few buttons, power on, and select 2band. (I'm at work and can't recall the exact method at the moment). No opening the unit required.
If anybody is interested, attached is my customized band layout for the HS4 (and its clones).
Just unzip it, then open it with the programming software and write to radio. (back up your original settings first)
A - Stock
B - Stock
C - Stock
D - Modified for channel 1 - channel 60 (26.965 - 27.605) so 27.555 is actually channel 55 on the dial
E - Modified (27.615 - 28.265)
F - Modified for UK 40 FM frequencies
NOTE: The programming software wont let me save the exact UK frequency in, so you'll need to adjust the clarifier/vfo a smidge and change the last digit from 0 to 5 when using this band. Example: UK Channel 23 27.82120 should be 27.82125.

Thanks. easy enough. I don't even need a screwdriver !!
my newest version of the anytone 5555N II, I had to open the case and snip plus move a jumper. it looks nothing like this radio, but apparently this is equivalent to Ailunce HS4.

My granddad got me one of these in the 70s. Turned out to be a good radio. It matched up very well with a D-104. I modified it for FreeBand, and drove a 300 watt amp with it. True Confessions!
